let the Transformers/Puppet master cross over figures commence o.O

People have been enjoying their Seige Refraktors and Springer for weeks or even months.

And here in Canada, we are still stuck at Wave One.

We've had wave 2 for a while now.

Depend on area and availability, of course.

Finally hunted down another Jetfire, tried the face mask in the parking lot and it stayed! Got it home, popped right off and it won’t stay on. What, the, F. I’m cursed.

I just read somewhere that Nova Storm is canonically female

The original source that first named Nova Storm used male pronouns for all three Rainmakers.

FYI, BBTS is showing Omega Supreme now in stock. Guess they got an early shipment?

Random: What are some of your favorite blast effects to bot combinations? I prefer Aimless' squiggly effects on Starscream. Blowpipe's and Firedrive's look great with just about anyone.

The ones that have to stay in package so my cat doesn't eat them.

Bravo! Best obscure movie reference of the week.

Agreed!

So, fun fact: the 5 seekers I currently own all color match Voltron! Pretty bizarre coincidence, but really cool. So I decided to try combining the 5 seekers into a Seeker-tron, and it didn't go to well




also, Battlemasters make fairly decent combiner weapons

Fellow Seibertronian Powermaster Ultra Prime has shared a bevy of cell shaded War for Cybertron Siege Optimus Prime images with us. There are many images of this figure floating around on the inter-webs out there but these give an excellent view of how the cell shading works in some natural lighting. Also of note is how good it looks when mowing down an army of Decepticons. Kind of hard to argue that one.










































We also have some more professionally photographed comparison shots of Siege Optimus and Megatron side by side with their cell shaded versions. Although not naturally lit these also show off how that cell shading works so well in some poses, but maybe not so much in others. These images come to us from Facebook user Masterandy's Kindergarten FB Branch. It is amazing the action poses you can get the Siege figures into.



















Well, what do you think Seibertronians? Are these the faction commanders you've been waiting for or are the initial Siege releases of Optimus and Megatron your favorites? Let us know in the forums and as always stay tuned to Seibertron for the ultimate in Transformers news!

"Cell shaded?"

More like G2 "clown camo".

[Quantum Surge]

Not feeling these repaints. I'm happy enough with the original versions of the molds.

[Evil Eye]

Not bad! For the price point that's quite nice, more shading so they look like poseable DYRL cels would be cool but that would drive the cost up further, not to mention increase the risk of paint errors. Yep, these are awesome.

I'll stick with my battle damaged versions. Thanks for the sweet photos, though!

Not sure on the windscreen, but that's some nice paintwork.

Shattered Glass Ironhide.

[Stargrave]

Totally. I'm not a fan of the smashed windshield either but that black and red looks hot, mmf, Ironhide out on the town lookin' slick.

Thanks for this, I'm way too impatient to wait for a Black Friday sale and had him on pre-order from Amazon, which is due next month. For $4 more with a chance he'll arrive before my birthday, sure, why not?

[DeathReviews]

M'eh. I still like the regularly painted Siege Optimus/Megatron better....

[STngAR]

That's a darn pretty good looking repaint.

Also got tired of Springer not showing up at Wal-Mart so I bought it from Wal-Mart.com

I love the design of SIEGE Megas, but i really hate Prime's truckmode, it just looks odd with the bulging headlights and that weird roof.
